princemuga · Apr 29, 2014

Hi should I replace my i3-3240 to a older gen. i5-2400?
my build is
i3-3240 3.40GHz
PALiT GEFORCE GTX 750 Ti Storm X Dual 2GB
8GB RAM

Why? You can get i5-3470 or i5-3570 but anyway i5-2400 would be faster than i3-3240.

i5 is better but get a i5 4670k instead or a fx 8350

Yeah , but you should save money for a better i5.

well, the fx 8350 performs just as well as i5 4670k, if he plays modern games :/
